[quote=Anonymous]I have a 1 bedroom condo in Fairfax Village/Hillcrest in SE DC. It's a good area and the current rent is about $1400-1450 in that area with water included(through HOA) in the rent. I have an option of renting it out to a section 8 tenant or regular but need some input as what this board think of that. Section 8 tenants are low-income but rent is guaranteed and there is no delay in rent or anything else. The regular tenant is also good but I am afraid that they would not pay rent and use the advantage of tenant friendly law in DC. With Covid and everything else, the courts are all backed-up and though the eviction moratorium is going to be lifted at the end of June, I am concerned that some tenants could just paying rent because it is so difficult to kick them out in DC. What are the ways I should protect myself if I pick a regular tenant and is there anything I could do with the lease to make my case stronger? [/quote]
